One of the biggest successes of last seasons remains on the programme! If you want to see this fantastically spectacular performance, it would be worth thinking about booking well in advance!

Refined French taste has always set the trend in gastronomy, fashion and design, as well as in culture and the arts. In recent years this influence has reached musical theatre too. The musical has been enriched with new colours and tastes in the studios of Paris. The cult of beauty, playfulness and sentimentality has imbued and brought new life to the stagnat-ing Anglo-Saxon genre; in place of a special treat for a narrow, theatre-going stratum it has been transformed into a commu-nity event.

The musicals Notre Dame de Paris and more recently Romeo and Juliet have been seen by great numbers in long production runs in the Palais des Sports seating thousands or the Palais des Congrès. Everyone is familiar with the story of the musical based on Shakespeare's play.

In the words of Gerard Presgurvic, the composer and librettist: "Romeo is the most romantic and most tragic play in world literature. It would be hard to find a better subject for a good musical. It has everything: hate, love,misunderstanding, death, wedding, freedom. Besides all this I have attempted to use Romeo and Juliet to discover many new and timely feelings in myself."
